Looking into HTML5 + CSS3

LOOKING INTO HTML5+CSS3

THINGS ARE GOOD
BETWEEN US, XHTML, RIGHT?

I MEAN.
WE GET ALONG WELL.
AND WE BOTH LIKE STUFF.

“THE ATTEMPT TO GET THE
WORLD TO SWITCH TO XML,
INCLUDING QUOTES
AROUND ATTRIBUTE VALUES
AND SLASHES IN EMPTY TAGS
AND NAMESPACES ALL AT
ONCE DIDN'T WORK.”
-TIM BERNERS-LEE

OF THE LUXURIES AND
THE NECESSITIES WILL TAKE

LESSONS LEARNED
• New HTML5 elements are treated as inline elements.

• Need to use CSS property-value display:block

• IE6
and IE7 need to be nudged to recognize HTML elements in
order to have CSS be applied

• document.createElement(‘html5element’);

• Dean Edwards IE7 script doesn’t help

• There isn’t a jQuery plugin to make it “easier”

LESSONS LEARNED

• For Firefox 2 and Camino (Gecko 1.9)

• HTML5 pages need to be served as XHTML

• Content-Type: application/xhtml+xml;

• ...Let the irony set for a bit.

LOOP, CONTROLS

• If you don’t have CONTROL, player becomes transparent

• Only able to play OGG format in nightly build of Firefox.

• Could not get player to use MP3 audio

VIDEO DEMOS

• Personal demo

• http://tinyvid.tv/

• http://www.mozbox.org/jdll/video.xhtml

HTML5 VIDEO

• WIDTH and HEIGHT should be required, IMO, but movie plays
anyway based on the values in the video ﬁle itself.

• Video formats may have their own posterframe. The browser
should use that by default unless overridden by valid POSTER
attribute value.

• Alternative text is placed inside VIDEO element.

• If you want to give users control, use CONTROL attribute.

HTML5 VIDEO

• Video can start automatically if using the AUTOPLAY=”1”
attribute and value.

• Specprovides for LOOP, AUTOBUFFER which also take a value of
O or 1.

• Codecs support...

HTML5 VIDEO
“It would be helpful for interoperability if all browsers could
support the same codecs. However, there are no known
codecs that satisfy all the current players: we need a codec that
is known to not require per-unit or per-distributor licensing,
that is compatible with the open source development model,
that is of sufﬁcient quality as to be usable, and that is not an
additional submarine patent risk for large companies. This is an
ongoing issue and this section will be updated once more
information is available.”

LESSONS LEARNED
• Works in nightly builds of Firefox (3.2b) and only for OGG
format.

• Other browsers that said they supported the VIDEO format I
could not get to work on my machines.

• Used VLC to encode common movie ﬁles types to OGG

• Toget cross-browser, you will need to encode in more than one
ﬁle format. Is it really needed?

• People really, really, really want this to work.

REPLACING ABBR
• ABBRis used by screenreaders to expand abbreviations like “lbs”
or “NCAAP”

• Howeverunintended consequences occurred trying to
workaround browser bugs for other HTML elements

• What happens when a screenreaders text like this:

• “Let’sgo to <abbr class="geo"
title="30.300474;-97.747247">Austin, TX</
abbr>”

LESSONS LEARNED

• Proprietary CSS extensions in Firefox and Safari.

• JavaScriptsolution through a jQuery plugin:
http://welcome.totheinter.net/2008/07/22/multi-column-layout-
with-css-and-jquery/

#NUMBER4 {
OPACITY: .4; /* .4 = 40% TRANSPARENCY */
FILTER: ALPHA(OPACITY=40); /* 40 = 40% TRANSPARENCY */
}

LESSONS LEARNED
• Supported in Firefox 1.5+, Opera 9+, Safari 1.2+ and Chrome.

• IE5.5+ requires the use of its own alpha ﬁlter in order for the
effect to be cross-browser.

•A drawback to using the opacity ﬁlter is that the value is inherited:

• If a parent element is set to be 10% transparent, the child
elements’ transparency is also going to be 10%.

• Watch out for legibility issues within the Web page.

OPACITY
ON BACKGROUND COLORS
(RGBA)

#NUMBER4 {
BACKGROUND-COLOR: RGBA(255, 255, 0, .4);
}

#NUMBER4 {
BACKGROUND-COLOR: RGB(255, 255, 0);
BACKGROUND-COLOR: RGBA(255, 255, 0, .4);
}

LESSONS LEARNED

• Firefox 3+, Opera 10+, and Safari support RGBA

• Requires another background-color property for cross-browser
support.

• IE Support!

#NUMBER4 {
BACKGROUND-COLOR: TRANSPARENT;
FILTER:PROGID:DXIMAGETRANSFORM.MICROSOFT.GRADIENT(STARTCO
LORSTR=#66FFFF00,ENDCOLORSTR=#66FFFF00);
}

LESSONS LEARNED
• First
step is to convert the RGB value of the color to
hexadecimal. In this example, rgb(255,255,0) converts to #FFFF00.

• Next, convert the alpha transparency value to hexadecimal
string . In this example, the value is 66.

• E.g., alpha value of .3 equals 4D in hexadecimal values

• Then assemble the hexadecimal value for transparency and the
color together in one string, starting with the transparency:
#66FFFF00.
